In a move aimed at amplifying India’s united stance against cross-border terroris following Operation Sindoor, the government has announced that seven all-party delegations will visit key partner nations later this month, including members of the United Nations Security Council.

The initiative, a rare bipartisan exercise, seeks to project India’s unwavering commitment to fighting terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.

"The All-Party Delegations will project India's national consensus and resolute approach to combating terrorism in all forms and manifestations," the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs said in a statement on Saturday (17 May).

According to the statement, they would carry forth to the world the country's strong message of zero-tolerance against terrorism.

"Members of Parliament from different parties, prominent political personalities, and distinguished diplomats will be part of each delegation," the ministry added.

Each group will be led by a distinguished MP, representing both ruling and opposition parties — a reflection of India’s cohesive internal alignment on the issue.

The seven delegations will be led by:

  • Shashi Tharoor (Congress)

  • Ravi Shankar Prasad (BJP)


  • Baijayant Panda (BJP)

  • Kanimozhi Karunanidhi (DMK)

  • Supriya Sule (NCP)

  • Shrikant Eknath Shinde (Shiv Sena)

  • These outreach efforts follow India’s successful execution of Operation Sindoor, which neutralised terrorist infrastructure across Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

    On the all-party delegations, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said that India is presenting a united front in critical moments.

    "In moments that matter most, Bharat stands united. Seven All-Party Delegations will soon visit key partner nations, carrying our shared message of zero-tolerance to terrorism. A powerful reflection of national unity above politics, beyond differences," he said.
